AC DUCT CLEANING

PROFESSIONAL AC DUCT CLEANING SERVICES IN DUBAI

AC ducts are the passages that transport air from your cooling system into each room and out again. Here in the Middle East our high reliance on AC and the fact that we spend a lot of time indoors (especially during the intense summer season) means air pollution can be 3-5 times higher inside your home than it is outdoors!

To flush out the dust, mould, parasites and other harmful contaminants that can get trapped out of sight, you must regularly schedule AC duct cleaning in Dubai. Professional AC cleaning services like ours, have well-trained staff who ensure every inch of your ducts are thoroughly cleaned and disinfected.

SIGNS TO SCHEDULE AC DUCT CLEANING

AC cleaning in Dubai needs to be taken seriously. In addition to long-term health implications, not having your AC ducts professionally cleaned can also significantly lower the efficiency of your air conditioning system and leave you with higher bills.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Why do ducts need cleaning? How can I tell when it is time for AC duct cleaning?

Air ducts are responsible for pushing air into each of your rooms. Over time, dust particles, dirt and even harmful microorganisms start to build up on their surfaces. When your AC is running it pushes this dirt and dust around, blowing it back into your rooms.

If you can see dust or mould then that is a key indicator that it is time to schedule an AC duct cleaning service! However, the ducts in your home are mostly behind walls and it is unlikely that you will be able to directly tell if a clean is required. If your ducts have not been cleaned for over a year then you can safely assume that dust and dirt will be starting to settle. If you are noticing an increase in the suffering of allergies from family members this may also indicate that your ducts need cleaning.

If you are moving into a new apartment or villa one of the first things you should do is to schedule a full AC service and duct clean. You don’t want any residual dirt from the previous owners to be locked in your AC system. Scheduling an immediate clean also means you start with perfectly clean ducts and this will help you to keep track of your timings for future AC duct cleaning and servicing.

How can I clean AC ducts myself?

Attempting AC duct cleaning without professional equipment will yield limited results. To be completely clean, your ducts require brushes & hoses inserted up to 15 metres deep to eradicate dirt, dust and sand. Additionally, antifungal disinfection using a fogging machine is required to kill bacteria. Duct cleaning should therefore be undertaken strictly by a trained technician.

What type of AC duct cleaning is best?

For professional AC duct cleaning Umair Technical Services uses Rotobrush equipment operated by specially trained technicians. This method loosens up more dirt and debris than many alternatives due to its accelerated spin cycle. In addition, it enables packed dirt and mold removal using a high-powered industrial vacuum at the source, preventing contamination. Antibacterial fogging is one of the final steps in our AC duct cleaning process to kill any remaining bacteria within the ducts.

Is AC duct cleaning necessary?

Yes, regular AC duct cleaning enables the ‘lungs of your home’ to circulate clean & safe air for your family to breathe. This is essential to promote good respiratory health and can help to reduce aggravation from allergies.

When should I get my AC ducts cleaned?

Your AC ducts should be professionally cleaned every 1 to 2 years depending on usage. If doors are regularly left open, sand and other airborne particles will find their way into the AC system, requiring more frequent AC duct cleaning services. That said, be cautious of providers offering duct cleaning bundled with your AC service. AC duct cleaning is not required as frequently as AC servicing (which should be conducted every 4 months) so you may end up being overcharged if the two are combined as a standard package.

How long does AC duct cleaning take?

Professional AC duct cleaning should take approximately 1.5 hrs per AC unit, depending on the length of the duct. Umair Technical Services uses Rotobrush equipment with powerful suction, meaning less mess and less disruption for your family.

What are some common precautions to expect from an AC duct cleaning company?

A reputable AC duct cleaning company should cover all your furniture with plastic sheeting before they begin the cleaning process. They should be wearing PPE including protective goggles, gloves, and shoe coverings while carrying out their work and should be happy to provide before & after pictures once the work has been completed. We are one of the best AC duct cleaning companies in Dubai and follow all of the above precautions.
